Theatrical drama
Picture it, Sicily 1918. The stage is set, they call us to take our seats for this thrilling tale of scandalous behavior.
We are seated, lights dim and the curtains are lifted. Backdrop is a gorgeous scenery of an Australian billabong bush setting. Slight music interlude and we set off for this thrilling performance of which has been highly recommended by all who have experienced it before. This includes both, national and international media who have given this experience worldly acclaims.
Weaving and dodging through the scenery, we are reminded of the canals of Venice. Life and times are innocent. Spirits are lifted as the actors take to the stage. There is heartfelt angst to the Damsel as she recently said goodbye to loved ones. For light through yonder window breaks – the Damsel is aimlessly engrossed in her surroundings. It’s early this fine spring morning. She floats through the water with an air of grace. Her attention is distracted as she is bemused by an anticipated interruption. Joy is brought to her face with the short but lasting distraction of Lady 1. Lady 1 is a well dressed, sophisticated lady that has an ora about herself that many are intrigued with. Although fleeting, her cries of delight are overheard by the Villain. Still delighted by her interruption, she is unbeknownst to the perils of the Villain. He is hiding on the cliff above and before she can compose herself to reciprocate the interruption of Lady 1, the Villain struck with speed and force and removed Lady 1 from the scene.
Heavy drum noise.
Not a pessimistic individual, our Damsel is undeterred by the Villain’s actions. She continues her float along the spring felt scene taking in the architecture of the intertwined flora with the knowledge that the right lady is out there for her. Taking a turn in her travels, she is now drifting along a pathway of overgrown pandanas trees. The scenery is amazing. She is engrossed at such beauty that her thoughts are returned to Lady 1, when suddenly Lady 2 enters the scene. She takes heed to her advancements with great enthusiasm. Unfortunately this instance was too, a fleeting experience. The Villain attuned to the Damsels cries of glee, emerges from the pandanas covered foreground to abduct Lady 2. Unwilling in her own right, Lady 2 struggles and reveals in her plight that she is a young attractive ballerina, pirouetting on stage to escape the clenches of the Villain. Gone has two extraordinary ladies to the nasty Villains tactics, the Damsel scowls him with dissent.
Heavy drum noise matches the burrowed eyebrows of the Damsel.
Quite chuffed that such blatant hypocrisy could occur in such a quick time frame, she shuns the Villain’s laughter of contempt. Our Damsel moves to more open areas of scenery limiting the hiding nooks that the Villain has accommodated earlier that day. The beauty is ever greater than of previous experiences. The open scenery is lined with the Damsel’s favorite flowers, the native Australian Water Lilly. The scene is framed with this carpet of colour and aroma of the blossoms that happiness is brought back to her face. The Damsel tilts her head back to take in the sensory overload of the warmth of the spring sun, the palate of colour and distinct aroma of the lilies that she is again interrupted by a very attractive lady. Lady 3 catches her eye but plays hard to get. She turns her back on the Damsel to reveal the sleek cut and shimmering colour of her designer garment. Encouraged greater than ever, the Damsel moves towards Lady 3. Still not wanting to be obviously caught by the Damsel’s wilds, Lady 3 shows her athletic prowess with a gymnastic move across the stage. Fascinated by this performance, the Damsel positions herself in her path. Lady 3 now knowing that she has captivated the attention of the Damsel proceeds to the safety of her waiting arms. Suddenly, danger lurks near by that threatens to sever this connection between the two beauties. Startled by this danger Lady 3 shies away to the safety of the forest. However, the connection between both ladies draws each other closer and soon they are united. Cries of glee are heard far and wide. The Damsel has finally captured a lady deserving of her attention.
Delighted in her success, the Damsel continues to keep an attentive approach to other ladies for the rest of the afternoon. Again, she is interrupted by another beauty. Similar to the other ladies of the day, this one has as much sophistication and elegance as the others. Ecstatic with her capture of Lady 3, her reaction is lessened. However, lurking near by was the Villain who again stole this lady from the arms of the Damsel. Not to be out done with injustices, the Arch Enemy of the Villain entered the scene. This Arch Enemy was all who were concerned, greatest enemy. The Damsel showing good faith to the Villain assisted with cries of warnings. The Villains attention was heightened as he quickly stole Lady 4 from the clasp of the Arch Enemy. Both the Damsel and the Villain took heed to this threat from the Arch Enemy and decided to be pleased with the day’s experiences and retreated home with Lady 1, Lady 2, Lady 3 and Lady 4.
The lights bring the theatre patrons back to reality. The curtains close and we are left with the lasting impression of “what matters in life is not quantity, its quality”.
